St Sever Calvados is a small rural village located in the heart of Normandy, France. It is a picturesque village surrounded by lush green countryside and is home to a rich history and culture.The village is on the D524 between Sainte Cecile Normandy and the old town of Vire
We had been to see the village of Sainte Cecile and were on our way to the town of Vire. When we came to St Sever Calvados we drove straight through but decided it was worth stopping on the way back. I am glad we did there is a main street with a mixture of local shops. Just off the main street is an old church and a large car park. Which is ideal if you want to walk round the village
The village's history dates back to the 11th century when it was founded by the Normans and was known as Saint Sever des Bois. It was the birthplace of the famous Norman poet, Robert le Diable, who wrote about the beauty of the village and its surrounding countryside in his works.
